Chapter 552: protecting the ducks
Translator: 549690339
“bang!”
the thickest root of the thirty-meter-tall dragon-blood nymph was more than a meter in diameter and was extremely hard.
they were like armored earthworms that were stirring the soil and finally dragging out a glowing object.
it was a five-meter long, two-meter wide object that looked like a coffin.
it was blurry and he could not see clearly, but there was indeed something moving inside.
“could this be … a sealed land?”
bai wushang walked around in a circle and was quite surprised.
he had just been guessing how shanhai had gotten his 1 point. who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, he would be faced with one of the options?
taking everything into account, it had only been half an hour since the start of the competition.
bai wushang was still in the most basic exploration stage, hunting wild beasts he encountered while looking for traces of his teammates.
luck might have played a big part in finding this sealed land.
if sen po was not fighting here, the enemy would be in a bit of trouble and would need to activate the expansion to quickly kill them.
it was impossible for bai wushang to use his spatial perception to see through the thick rocks and soil and discover that such a thing was buried fifty or sixty meters underground.
he bent down and was about to study it.
as if some kind of switch had been triggered, the light in the coffin automatically extinguished, and a crack appeared along the middle of the coffin.
“dragging it out from the ground is considered breaking the seal?”
bai wushang was slightly stunned. it turned out that there was no need to violently dismantle it, and the seal would automatically remove itself.
in that case, was the difficulty of this mission mainly in ” finding “?
“gah! gah gah!”
” caw caw caw caw caw!! ”
a burst of hoarse and noisy quacking interrupted bai wushang’s thoughts.
he carefully observed the living being hidden in the box and suddenly felt a headache.
they were nine small yellow ducks the size of a fist. they were furry, had flat mouths, and maple leaf-like flippers. they swayed as they walked, and they were very cute.
however, being exposed to the new environment, the little ducks were seriously frightened and could not stop quacking.
they didn’t stick out their buttocks, flap their wings, and try to escape;
it curled up on the spot and trembled, looking through the crack at bai wushang and the dragon-blood tree monster with a face of horror.
“i see …”
bai wushang rubbed the space between his brows, speechless.
his majesty was digging a hole for the students to jump into …
and it was the kind of dance that he had to do …
he turned around and saw that the score wall had indeed changed.
ranked first, mountain sea’s total score increased from 1 point to 2 points, forming a stark contrast with the duck eggs of the other three.
but bai wushang wasn’t happy.
before this, just by looking at the mission requirements, he had no idea what kind of existence the so-called sealed beast was.
he could only guess that it was a relatively fragile creature that was easily injured and killed.
however, he did not expect that not only did he meet this condition perfectly, but he also did not expect that he would be able to do so.
the sealed beasts inside were not one, but a group.
a total of nine!
they were all mid-stage hatchling, 2-star mortal bone level, and a transcendent creature called ” dumb dumb ducks. ”
these creatures did not possess any combat ability.
its only characteristic was that it was so silly that it was cute.
among the people, there were many families of masters.
it was once raised as a pet duck and was very popular with underaged girls.
someone had given mu xiaoxiao two on her eighth birthday.
it was a pity that because she liked it so much, she had to wrap herself in the blanket and sleep together. in the end, she suffocated to death and cried for a few days because of this …
recalling the past, bai wushang began to feel a headache.
protecting a group of ducklings and surviving for three days in this abandoned city, where even the weakest was at the early stage of complete form, was that even possible?
it was not impossible, but … it was too troublesome!
such a fragile duckling would not be able to survive a soundwave attack or a sneak attack.
if one of them died, wouldn’t it mean that the mission had failed?
wasn’t this super tiring …
however, if he gave up now …
it was still one point …
bai wushang could roughly guess that they wanted to widen the gap between them and the scarlet dragon royal academy and lay the foundation for victory.
every point was crucial.
this was especially so for a sealed land like this. not only did it require a sufficiently powerful perception, but it also required a certain amount of luck.
however, there was only one point in protecting the duckling.
if he wasted too much time on this and slowed down his progress in other aspects, it was easy to lose a lot for a small gain.
for the first time in his life, bai wushang had to face such a tricky problem.
fortunately, he quickly thought of a solution.
protect the duckling, sure!
the mission did not require the liberator to provide protection.
bai wushang was ready to negotiate with his teammates and find one or two of them who were in the middle of the team.
they were entrusted with only one task within three days, under the condition of ensuring their own safety.
jian jia acted as a ‘nanny’,’ nanny’, and ‘nanny’, responsible for protecting the dumb duck and other sealed beasts.
it was all for these 10 team points.
in this way, bai wushang, whose combat power was higher, could spare some energy to carry out more dangerous tasks.
this was probably what the red dragon emperor wanted to see. the team had a clear division of labor, reasonable deployment, and worked together towards the goal.
once he had an idea, bai wushang tore off the blue snow beast’s fur, took some local materials, and made a simple beast skin bag.
he then stuffed the ducks into the bag, one in each hand, and tied them to the side of the dragonblood nymph’s main body.
he didn’t dare to say that he would definitely survive.
but doing so would definitely increase the chances of survival compared to carrying it on his back.
he continued to explore.
after a long time, wisps of white mist suddenly floated over from the left, attracting bai wushang’s attention.
this was not a product of natural ecology.
instead, it was a special mist that could conceal one’s soul power perception and block the transmission of sound.
its concentration was not high, so it could not affect all areas.
however, the area covered by the mist would definitely be affected, so he had to be extra careful.
bai wushang tentatively walked in step by step.
he had a weaker version of the starry moon eyes.
the fog of obstruction’s effect on vision could not be said to be completely negligible.
but it wasn’t too far off.
then, to his surprise, he encountered even more monsters.
it wasn’t as dense as the beast tide, nor was it as numerous as the puppet monsters controlled by the absolute beginning evil spirit in gemstone city.
however, it was basically killing a beast in every ten steps, and they were constantly surging towards him.
“boom! boom! boom!”
in the distance, a mushroom cloud of fire suddenly exploded, passing through a wisp of mist and reflecting in bai wushang’s eyes.
he focused his gaze and leaped up, landing on the left shoulder of the dark golden ape.
“ah zhou, let’s go and take a look!”
“roar!”
the giant ape began to run wildly, and the monsters that rushed from its wings were mercilessly knocked and blasted away.
forest soul, whose free form was slightly petite, tied half of the vines to the waist of the giant ape and took the steel assault vehicle for free.
this was a tactic that bai wushang was currently trying to figure out.
giant ape tree demon, joint mode!
